I've given this book many times as a gift. It pretty much tells you what it's all about.

** spoiler alert ** 3:07 AM I just finished it. My eyes are all puffy. My nose is stuffed up. Invincible Summer is a must read. We witness Chase McGill grow up. He doesn't want to at first. And it seems, this is precisely his attraction for some. We read as he stands by while his baby sister grows (even if she does so, a little too quickly.) We read as he watches Noah, whom he idolizes continuously, run away. We witness his/their screwed up connection to their summer neighbors. We watch as his family falls apart then sort of comes back together. And on that last summer, something so... heartbreaking. The cover is misleading. It’s a girl on a beach. At first, I thought, a fun summer read. This was off the mark. Yes, there are moments where I had to laugh at how familiar they were with Camus, at how they always had something from him to throw out. But overall, The Invincible Summer is not light, not fun… it’s intense, raw and emotional. But I made myself read on… even if I had to pause every now and then. The author pulls no punches. The book isn’t just about one thing. There's so many things going on. It’s about a couple of things happening Chase, and to his family as he felt it (and I felt a lot as a consequence). It’s about: brothers, parents, girls, mistakes -- a shitload of mistakes. Then it’s about grief. Finally, acceptance. Bits of it made me uncomfortable, but she didn't hold back. Bits of, no whole portions of it, made me cry. I couldn't stop crying. INTENSE eARC care of Simon & Schuster's galley grab program

Story of a rocky relationship of a mother and daughter. It is shocking, and vulgar at some parts but the journey of this young woman is worth reading about.

One of the best books I've read in recent years. This is a story of the absurdities and horrors of war made palatable by dark humor. During the WWII siege of Leningrad by the Germans, two men are sent on a ludicrous mission to find a dozen eggs in a city where the rats have disappeared months ago because there is no garbage to eat and some of the starving citizens have resorted to cannibalism. The principle characters are unlikely bedfellows - a cavalier lady killer soldier and a naive and self deprecating virginal Jewish teenager. They were for me hard to believe initially. But through the course of the story I came to love them and when the last sentence was read (I was listening to the audio version) I sobbed. One of the afflictions of my aging years is that I tend to map the experiences of fictional characters into my own and react emotionally. My other act on finishing the story was to start to listen to it all over again.

The winner of the Newbery this year is a fine historical novel for older children and young teens, too. Being from Kansas, I was especially interested in some of the characters. A small town of immigrants gave the author the opportunity to introduce many colorful people. Told in flashbacks to WWI, the story explains the recent past to a girl who worries about her wandering father's history and why he sent her to live in depression era Manifest, KS.

Yet another quote from the text that outlines its general thesis: “Strategically placed, and compelled often to choose even at the best between the equally cogent through conflicting ideals of safety for the institution, and candor to his public, the official finds himself deciding more and more consciously what facts, in what setting, in what guise he shall permit the public to know. – That the manufacture of consent is capable of great refinements no one, I think, denies. The process by which public opinions arise is certainly no less intricate than it has appeared in these pages, and the opportunities for manipulation open to anyone who understands the process are plain enough. The creation of consent is not a new art. It is a very old one which was supposed to have died out with the appearance of democracy. But it has not died out. It has , in fact, improved enormously in technic, because it is based on analysis rather than on rule of thumb. – Within the life of the generation now in control of affairs, persuasion has become a self-conscious art and a regular organ of popular government. – Under the impact of propaganda, not necessarily in the sinister meaning of the word alone, the old constraints of our thinking have become variables” (247-48).

Very Intense. Not for the sqeamish.

Complêtement fou... Je ne pensais pas qu'il serait possible pour Patrick Ness de garder la même intensité, la même fraîcheur et le même rythme, mais il l'a fait. Aussi sombre, voire même plus sombre que les autres volets de la trilogie, sans être jamais manichéen, mais en restant toujours entier... On en sort transformé. Un véritable tour de force, et une série à lire absolument.
